Trump proclamation bans imports of certain Canadian alcoholic beverages from September 29, 2026
Excluding Certain Canadian Alcoholic Beverages from Importation into the United States in Response to Continued Discrimination Against the Commerce of the United States with Respect to Alcoholic Beverages
A presidential proclamation signed September 8, 2026 excludes certain alcoholic beverages that are products of Canada, as set out in the Annex, from importation into the United States, effective for goods imported on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern time on September 29, 2026. The products were subject to the 50 percent ad valorem duty imposed by Proclamation 11046, which took effect August 22, 2026 after the 3-day suspension in Proclamation 11056 lapsed. Goods imported but not yet entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, before September 29, 2026 remain subject to that 50 percent duty rate.
Entries of the Canadian alcoholic beverages listed in the Annex on or after September 29, 2026 are barred from importation, while goods not yet entered or withdrawn from warehouse before that date stay subject to the 50 percent duty.
